The New Yorker Muse and a New York Return
A reflective piece on how travel alters perception of New York City. The author notes that time away makes familiar streets and landmarks feel different, heightening awareness of the city’s pace, transit routines, and unseen corners. Observations include subway routines, parks, and a sense that life in the metropolis remains complex and vast after absence. The excerpt ends with an unrelated anecdote about exhaust fumes used to kill a rattlesnake in Pueblo, Colorado.
